Member Since: January 2006 Posts: 129 Send Message	Hi Has anyone ever tried to see if they can get a police report/record for an investigation that was carried out 100 years ago? My Great Grandmother committed suicide and a PC Waspe 'investigated' her death. Am I wasting my time seeing if any record was kept?
